Reminds me of the old Abbott and Costello routine of "Who's on First?" I used to watch that routine with my dad when I was a kid. Fun, fun poem. I liked playing along:)
ReplyDeleteShel Silverstein is one of my favorites. I purchased almost every one of his books for my son while I was pregnant. I only have a few more to get but I just love reading his work. Happy you liked it. Totally Abbott and Costello!
ReplyDeleteI love this poem. Shel Silverstein is an amazing poet. I am reciting this poem with me as the Meehoo and a friend being the person behind the door for my poetry class. I might even take a stuffed thing and put it on a chain behind me! This is a very fun poem.
